i love writing morally grey characters. keeping readers on their toes/not letting them form an opinion about whether or not they like/dislike a character makes me giddy. i haven't had a chance to explore it a lot with buddie, but you'll def see it in strip search!!
11: as far as fic writers go, letmetellyouaboutmyfeels is one of my favorite buddie authors. everything they've written is so raw and visceral and i aspire to be like them.
18: just do the dang thing and write!!! and start wherever you want. if you're stuck because you don't--
4: i have imposter syndrome and a praise kink so i'm not even joking when i say i'm motivated by comments/kudos. positive interactions make me feel like i'm doing something right lol. also, coming up with increasingly insane ways to make the gay firefighters kiss is v satisfying
i remember it so vividly. i was 8 and writing on my parents gateway computer in our basement 🥴 and i wrote a story about a girl who found a wild horse in the woods and they formed an inexplicable bond 🤣 and now here was are 21 years later

--spoken word, whatever it may be, you can create whatever you want with what's sitting right behind your eyes and there's something so magical about it
8: the thing i love the most is that you can literally build ANY world you want with just your mind. the creativity/freedom that gives you is so insane to me and i feel like no one talks about it. you're only limited by your imagination. pen to paper, typewriter, keyboard--

i have to write in either total silence or with only lofi/movie scores on in the background. nothing with lyrics because i get distracted way too easily and start focusing on the music instead of the fic 🤣 i do listen to regular music when i edit tho!!
currently the only thing i'm reading is nancy caroline's emergency care in the streets (iykyk) but i used to read A TON and i do think it has a huge impact on your writing. learning prose, dialogue, formatting, etc., all comes from reading/immersing yourself in the material
"best" is subjective ofc but this is the fic i'm most proud of: https://t.co/cq3DqeOvdI
i can't explain it, i just really love how i handled everyone's characterizations and the angst/plot twists, etc.. hall of famer for me for sure ❤️
--know how to start the fic, don't focus on the beginning. write whatever scene you're most excited about and everything else will fall into place around it. also, having someone beta is useful for edits/syntax, but the only way you can get better is by doing most of it yourself.
